What kind of root system do cottonwood trees have??

The reason I'm asking is I have one that has a halfway decent start to grow right over some lines in my geothermal system.
I probably should cut it down but in a few years it would give part of my yard some decent shade, but at the sametime I wonder what the roots will do to the geothermal lines.

Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated.
